As we're starting to get quite a following for the Game Ranking System (GRS). It was time I created a thread for it. For those of you who do not know what the GRS is. You can take a look at the following blogs:

Game Ranking System (GRS) v1.01 update - Support for Torque 3D/TGEA/TGE
Game Ranking System for Torque 3D - update #1
Game Ranking System (scoreboard/league tables) for Torque 3D

GRS records scores/league tables and custom information that can be displayed in a website and managed via a back end admin panel. No web development skills required, it creates the website for you! All you need is php/mysql hosting.

It can be used for any type of game genre (FPS, RPG, Racing) and comes with a set of Examples for Torque 3D, TGEA and TGE with TGB/TORQUE 2D support being added in an update (soon).

Ideal for, saving information:

On the fly.
Scheduled
At checkpoints
Collecting items
and more!

Price is still $39.99 for a short while at v1.01, until update v1.02 price then goes up - includes a $30 off voucher to purchase our next product GMMS (on release), and entry into our prize draw to win an iPad2 for a limited time!

What's going to be in the next releases:

v1.02 and v1.03 will be released together in a combined update.

v1.02 - Change background and font colors, font sizes of text and results headers within templates. Pagination within ranking pages for large number of results and search functionality so that your players do not have to plough through all of the results to know what rank they are.
v1.03 - Image Filters - Instead of showing numbers or text, you can replace the results with a filter to display an image, for example: Rank of General - then displays a medal.
Security features - hashing / encryption and more.
v1.04 - Torque Game Builder (TGB/Torque 2D) support.
